The Catacombs of Paris

There has been much discussion of the removal of remains to the Catacombs of Paris. The problem is, however, that at the time the remains were moved, only a guess could have been made about whose remains were moved (there was no DNA profiling at the time). This is the same for all the other cemeteries whose remains were moved to the catacombs. So who was moved is a matter of speculation. It is not even certain who was actually "buried" here.

Antoine Lavoisier

Antoine Lavoisier or to give his full name: Antoine-Laurent de Lavoisier was guillotined during the French Revolution. He was buried in a mass grave, as was the custom. It has been a matter of speculation wether this was in the Cimetière des Errancis or in Cimetière de Picpus. The date of his execution would be concistent with the disposal in the Cimetière des Errancis.

As it has been impossible to identify remains, this will probably remain speculation. As was the case of Louis XVIII who came looking for his sister but could not find her. JHvW 21:38, 30 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
